But keep in mind, i want to keep it simple at first, and then progress forward.

I assure you that the beginner kits from most places are as simple as you can get - at most it'll be something like:

1) Steep specialty grains in included muslin bag until temp reaches 170F. Remove bag and drain into pot.
2) Bring pot to boil.
3) Add extract and bittering hops (pre-measured)
4) Boil for an hour. Add finishing hops at some point in there according to schedule
5) Cool off, transfer to fermenter, pitch yeast.

I left out the intermediate steps like cleaning and sanitizing, but you'll have to do those no matter what.

Just don't want you to feel intimidated by the process and to start too simple.
